Now to find some farmers

Zimbabwe has commisioned its first biodiesel plant. Costing US$80 million ( where did they get the money?) the plant allegedly has a capacity of 100 million litres of biodiesel annually using as raw material, cotton seed, soya beans, jatropha and sunflower seed. Right. Who will produce these crops? Spigot asks because at least two of them are food and likely to be eaten first. Unless, of course, old Bob himself is going to be the farmer. It might work but a safer bet is to start raising donkeys for hauling work. They can live off the veld. They reproduce like crazy as well. A bit slow though.
